Discovery expected to land "Sarah Palin's Alaska"

A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life. A man who dares to waste one hour of time has not discovered the value of life. All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better. All the art of living lies in a fine mingling of letting go and holding on. Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out. Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact.

Now the information flows in an era of abundant data are changing the relationship between technology and the role of the state once again. Everyone's life is inseparable from the information.

Contrary to popular belief, Sarah Palin does NOT represent the typical Alaskan. True Alaskans are well educated and don't rely on outrageous statements (death panels)to make themselves popular. We're better than that.

If Palin Is telling all this 'Fiction' then Why is it that obama Had Said that he would do all these thing and yet they haven't gotten done yet? I find it hard to believe that Obama has done anything during his turn in office and all you people acting so hypocritical When She hasn't had the chance to do anything she said. And by the way She Can See Russia From her house She lives Because she lives So close :D

Just a thought...the new COO at Discovery is Peter Liguori who used to work for Fox Network....hmmmm, I think he probably had a big part in the crazy decision to do the Alaska thing with Palen....I won't watch and I have lots of friends who will be boycotting all the Discovery channels.

Discovery channel use to be a high quality channel I
enjoyed watching. What happened? Did Murdoch buy
Discovery channel? Looks to me like the mother of "Joe
The Plummer" is seeking a lot of exposure before the
next election. She'll need it!

The Discovery Channel has been one of our favorites, because it's above the nonsense of the Palins etc. Well, it was good while it lasted. Goodbye Discovery Channel.

I will boycott any station that gives this disgusting woman a television show.
Goodbye discovery channel you've gone to garbage lately anyway, with your redneck logging and monster truck shows, so I guess this move was inevitable.

Here comes the left and their mighty boycotts, self-induced Stalinism. LOL.

And her cohost should be??? DAN QUAYLE!! Palin-Drones http://anachronousanaesthesia.blogspot.com/2010/03/palin-drones.html

There are plenty of amazing Alaskans who could narrate a show like this who are knowledgeable about the far-flung reaches of our great state, and the many issues that concern its inhabitants. Our quitter governor has proven she isn't one of them, and that she prefers to live in her own alternate reality. If Discovery puts her on a show about Alaska, they will have ruined their credibility and earned a boycott from me.

So... will this be a reality show that the first person to quit wins?

What a disappointing choice. I'm a lifelong Alaskan, and I consider her to be the most environmentally disastrous governor we've ever had. She established a subcabinet to review the problems we're facing now from climate change, and now she's pretending that she thought it was "snake oil" science all along. She is responsible for the most aggressive and destructive wildlife policies we've ever had. She openly supported the Pebble Mine, a foreign-owned project that threatens our state's most important salmon habitat.

Sure hope this show includes photographs of state biologists shooting wolves from helicopters, of trappers killing wolves from the Denali National Park wolf pack, and black bear females and cubs being shot over bait. This fall, the state's going to consider allowing black and brown bears to be trapped outside of "predator control" areas. Thanks, Sarah.

I hope Discovery is prepared for an advertising boycott of this show, because a lot of Alaskans are sick of the way she exploits this state for her own personal gain, and because we're stuck with her horrible wildlife policies and appointees. Can't even vote her out of office, but we sure can make sure Discovery's viewers know what Sarah Palin's reality looks like.

See this blog site for a useful round-up of her environmental sins: http://palingates.blogspot.com/

Apparently, politics isn't as lucrative as she hoped, and is too much work... so she went back to being a TV announcer / beauty pageant contestant.

I assume, based on her past practice, Discovery will be required to provide her and her family with a complete new wardrobe.
.
And if she follows the pattern or her most recent job, she will quit after the 5th or 6th episode.

Have we not suffered enough of this narcissistic squeaky loudmouth, who hails from the Meth Capitol of the World (less than 1 per ea sq mi in Wasilla), and who could not even be bothered to visit Alaska's villages when Gov, even when elders were literally starving in 9 villages (while she spent State $s flying around instead, promoting herself, naturally). They are not real subsistence fishermen, or Eskimo (most of my Eskimo friends really resent their using that term& disown her&drinking hubby).
This is who is going to guide the public on Alaska? She knows nothing of Alaska, other than the small world that serves her.
We are not "Palin's Alaska," it is not "Palin's Alaska," that she will newly attempt to discover & show. Palin's Alaska is a self serving world, where she intimidated and basically blackmailed folks into doing as she wished. That is Palin's Alaska.

BTW, I happened to see Palin at McDonald's yesterday, as she hopped out of her car, walking across a busy parking lot with her small child just following many paces behind her, no hand held, etc. We thought, what kind of parent is that? What are they thinking? Then saw who it was, of course! How typical of her that is.

Please, Mark Burnett, have some pity on us. We have to live here. Produce her somewhere else Outside, where she wants to be & belongs.

So the channel most associated with science and the living world is now going to host the creationist, anti-science, racist, conservative bimbo we all know as Ms. Sarah. You betcha. How counter-intuitive. Wondering how many other Discovery viewers are going to feel "slimed" by this development? I know I won't be surfing by any channel that carries the kind of ignorant crap this individual regularly regurgitates.

Shouldn't it be a "I'm not in reality show"? Please America, stop the madness before it takes us all down.

Great another show based on fiction and mythological creatures.

Seriously though, how can a channel that runs shows about nature and dinosaurs present a show based on a young earth creationist who just a few election cycles ago wanted nothing more then to succeed from our great Union, the United States?

I may boycott... after the mini-series Life ends at least.

I am glad someone is creating private sector jobs around here and not government jobs.

Yup, I really learn alot from the history channel and the discovery channel...... Nothing like axe-men or monsterquest. Amazing, these used to be 2 great channels...

Palin's Alaska? I thought she dumped that state to make a fortune in the Lower 48. Oh, now I get it: she will now embrace Alaska for a cool one mil per episode. America, what a country.

this is great. I never watched discovery much but for this show I will not only watch the show but i'll sit thru the commercials too. Discovery will make a killing on this show.

I did have respect for the Discovery Channel. I am perplexed that they would put that thing on, and give it credence.

Then why are you reading a story about her, Lauren? And taking the time to comment?
